Hot Summer/Cool Forest Waters Open House Retreat
August 23/24
Featuring a Natural Communion Emmersion Experience Kayaking on the Wild and Scenic Rappahannock
River.
Average physical abilities
needed, no experience necessary. This
weekend will begin Saturday afternoon and evening with teaching and practices
on entering into the portals of now and learning to perceive the Natural Magic that is all around us. These classes are pre-requisite to the River
Immersion experience. Those who have
already taken a Natural Communion Class can come Sunday for the float
only. For more information and a
schedule of events see below.
Eckhart Tolle describes several
Portals to Now in his book Power of Now. In this retreat we will loose our
minds, come to our senses, and learn to experience and explore the energies of
nature and our own energy body. These are portals to now and practicing presence
allows us to significantly alter our state of consciousness. From this other level of direct experience,
we discover a life giving world of generosity, support and love. As we put into practice the power of now we
enter into the Garden. This is a lovely way to welcome in the Summer!
Saturday you will be held at the Earthwalk Retreat
Center in a deep,
peaceful, natural beauty and power that is palpable to everyone who comes here.
Sunday you will experience the natural magic of floating down the Rappahannock river..
Come and taste the powers of the water, and learn to shape shift and
follow the flow. Experience the effects
of a day long feast of Sun and Water, Sky and Forest.
Prices vary
depending on the individual package.
Saturday’s program will run 75 dollars including dinner. Guests can stay over at the center and costs
vary depending on arrangements from 30 to 75.
For those staying over we will have breakfast Sunday Morning for $8.
There is a 35 dollar rental fee for the Kayak and the trip upsteam. The Natural Communion Program is $75 for the
day, which includes lunch and snacks.
The complete program would run between $225 to $270 including overnight
accomodations. Just Sunday for those
already having a Natural Communion introduction is 110.

Below is a schedule I tried to divine to the best of my
ability, but......
At the Earthwalk Center we practice synchronous time and
flow, so specific events while on the Schedule for certain days and times are
changed to flow with weather and guidance in the moment. I trust that this
enhances the experience for all who participate.
